Philosophy
Young Peoples Learning Center was named after its philosophy was developed. “Young Peoples” was chosen to accentuate equality between children and adults. The rights and desires of adults are comparable to those of children; the right to be respected, the right to express feelings and opinions, the right to be heard and responded to, the right to independence, the right to choose, and the right to be seen as an individual.
“Learning Center” was chosen because your child will learn and grow socially, emotionally, physically, and intellectually through the many activities and situations presented to him/her – dramatic play, books, manipulative toys, block play, cognitive learning games, large muscle exercise, creative art, craft projects, puppets, science experiments, field trips, group time discussions, baking projects, social interactions, eating experiences, etc. These various experiences will enable your child to become an independent and positive person ready to succeed in the lifelong learning process.
